The Star Pirate's Folly

Set after the postwar collapse of an interstellar empire, a young orphan girl embarks on a quest for violent retribution. Six years old when her mother was killed, Buttercup endured an unforgiving adolescence on the streets of her home city. She's scraped by ever since, always searching for the man responsible, knowing one day she'll find him.

This is a great start! I'm intrigued by Buttercup's character, and I'm impressed with her fiery personality. You've conveyed your thoughts with flair, and you've crafted a vivid world. As a fellow science-fiction writer, I'd love to read about what happens next! :)
